You have to ask the question if a snide insult is worth your life (not you specifically of course, just conceptually).

That question works all the way around.

I mention this because someone on this thread used your 'handle' to opine that the appropriate response to someone insulting his wife or mother was to kill the the insulter. I respectfully remind that individual that folks who are threatened with death or grave bodily harm frequently KILL (as in stone cold dead) the person posing said threat.

Consider it a word to the wise.

>>Consider it a word to the wise.<<

The deployment of deadly force is always one of great consideration and yes, can have equal and opposite reactions.

The best advice of all: Don’t insult people who you do not know. I is rude, uncalled for, and may have dire consequences.
